SINGAPORE – Maintenance work by a tenant caused a water leak from a pipe at Jurong East Mall Jem on Tuesday (October 20), Lendlease Singapore said on Wednesday.
It happened around 10:45 pm, Ms Jenny Khoo, head of asset operations at Lendlease Singapore, who runs the mall, told The Straits Times.
“The rectification and cleanup work was carried out by the tenant’s contractor and the two affected retailers reopened for business this afternoon,” he added, declining to name the tenant.
A photograph sent by a reader to ST on Wednesday shows that the leak affected the Mango store on the second floor.
The area was cordoned off and about five men were cleaning the area outside the fast-fashion store.
Jem has leaked before.
In June 2015, diners at Din Tai Fung restaurant were splashed with residual water from a leaking kitchen drain pipe.
Two months earlier, a salad shop, Saladworks, flooded when a blocked drain pipe caused water to backflow into the store.
Another sewage leak was reported in March 2016, when water leaked to the entire floor of the mall’s IndoBox restaurant.
